Uses text, pictures, artifacts, technology, and audio visual materials as a means of providing new insights. Day 1 Lesson Plan: Video and Classroom Discussion Introduction Inform students that they will be learning how to be safe walkers. Create a concept map on the board that reflects students current pedestrian safety knowledge. Did you know? In the United States 30,000 children are hit by cars each year while walking. Every six minutes a pedestrian is hurt in traffic. Elementary school children are at the highest risk due to poor judgment of potentially dangerous situations. (NHTSA Traffic Safety Facts, 2007) Safe Pedestrian Intersection Crosswalk Curb/Edge Corner Signals Visual Screen Vocabulary Follows rules Crosses only at the corner or crosswalk Walks on sidewalk or left side of street Concept Map To be careful and avoid danger. A person who is walking. Where two roads meet. A marked place to cross the street. Raised pavement between the edge of the road and the sidewalk. Where the road bends or turns. Lights that tell cars and people when to stop and go. An object that blocks your view when crossing. Use vocabulary flashcards on pages to illustrate definitions. Use vocabulary matching activity on page 28 as a cooperative group demonstration. Ask students to list synonyms and antonyms for the vocabulary words and use sentence variety to apply words in sentences. Traffic Signals Review important traffic signals using traffic signal flashcards from pages Video Play Walking With Your Eyes (14:17 min).

Answer Stop at the curb/edge of the street, look left-right-left, and cross when there are no cars coming. Since cars drive on the right side of the road, the cars coming from the left will be closer to us than the ones coming from the right. No, there might be a car running a red light or making a fast turn. A green light or WALK signal means to look left-right-left first, and then cross when it is safe. Don t start crossing, but keep walking and scanning for cars if you ve already started to cross. Keep looking left-right- left until you ve arrived safely on the other side of the street. Anything that blocks your view such as a car, bus, or bush when you are standing on the curb/edge of the sidewalk, trying to look leftright-left. 1. Stop at the curb/edge. 2. Check to make sure the screen is not about to move. 3. Walk to the edge of the screen. 4. Look left-right-left until it is safe to cross. Make eye contact with the driver; follow the visual screen safety steps, then cross when it s safe. 9 What are some things to watch out for in a parking lot? Open spaces that are like roads, cars heading for empty spaces, and back-up lights. 3

4 Teacher s Guide: Grades Day 1 Summary Probe students prior knowledge of pedestrian safety. Review lesson vocabulary. Play Walking with your Eyes video. Additional Discussion Questions Question 10 In what ways can walking be beneficial (good) for your health? 11 If the road does not have a sidewalk, where should pedestrians travel? Answer Walking is a form of exercise. Exercising every day can make you healthy and strong and prevent children from becoming overweight, which can help protect you from many diseases. Walking is good for your muscles, your heart, and can even make you feel better! Walk as far to the left of the road as possible, facing traffic. Complete video discussion questions. Incorporate reproducible materials, teaching tools, and extended learning opportunities into lesson. *Optional Review key objectives. 12 Is it safer to cross at the corner or in the middle of the street? 13 Why is it important to walk on the sidewalk instead of in the street? It is safer to cross at the corner or at a crosswalk, never at mid-street where cars do not expect to stop for pedestrians. Walking along the street is very dangerous, especially on busy roads and at night. It is also against the law to walk in the street if there is a sidewalk next to it. Administer WalkSafe TM multiple choice 4-5 grade test.*optional 14 When crossing the street, sometimes kids act differently in groups than when they re alone. When you re crossing the street with your friends, who should follow the safety steps to make sure it is safe to cross? Everyone should follow the safety steps before crossing the street. When you re walking in a group, each person is in charge of his/her own safety. Key Objectives Lesson Review Pedestrians should be careful and practice safety steps when walking. Safe walkers stop, look, and listen for cars before crossing the street. Always stop at the curb, then look left-right-left before crossing the street. Walk on the sidewalk and cross at the corner, not the middle of the street. If your view is blocked, walk to the edge of the visual screen and then stop and look left-right-left again before crossing. Obey traffic signals and keep looking left-right-left while crossing. Evaluation An optional multiple choice test and answer key are available on pages

5 Teacher s Guide: Grades Materials Outdoor/indoor practice area Cones, sidewalk chalk, rope or any other materials necessary for creating a simulated road. Reproducible materials Pages *Optional Objectives Students in grades 4 and 5 will: 1. Practice how to cross streets safely applying WalkSafe TM skills in a street crossing simulation. 2. Understand the role of AAA School Safety Patrol 3. Identify the difference between safe and unsafe pedestrian behaviors. Sunshine State Standards Identify accident prevention procedures (HE.A.1.2.8). Demonstrate self control during game play. (PE.A.1 2.4). Encourages peers to respect others rights and abilities. Make a commitment to the completion of an assigned task. Apply various methods for communicating respect for established rules and authority. (HE.B.3.2.1). Day 2 Lesson Plan: Outdoor Street-Crossing Simulation Introduction Review: Street-Crossing Safety Steps Stop at the curb/edge of the street. Look left-right-left and listen for cars. Cross when no cars are coming. Review: Visual Screen Safety Steps If there is a visual screen such as a car or bush blocking your view when you re trying to cross the street, follow these safety steps Stop at the curb/edge of the road. If the screen is not moving, walk to the edge of the screen and stop (i.e. edge of object that is closest to traffic). Look left-right-left until it is safe to cross. Review: Safe Places to Walk 1. Always cross at the crosswalk or corner, never mid-street. 2. Always walk on the sidewalk. If there is no sidewalk, walk on the left edge of the road so drivers can see you. Review: Traffic Signals Use flashcards on pages to identify and review signal meanings. Introduce the Role of the AAA School Safety Patrol: Inform students that school safety patrols are important people who can help keep them safe when walking to, from, and around school. Teachers/principals can appoint 4 th and 5 th graders as patrol volunteers, who can participate with parental approval. Students should look for patrollers to help keep them safe while walking. The AAA School Safety Patrol can help students by: Showing them safe areas to cross roads on their way to and from school. Helping them safely get on and off the bus. Teaching them about traffic safety and how to be a safe pedestrian. WalkSafe Simulation Activity Set-Up Schools are encouraged to set-up the simulation on the physical education hard court (or other safe outdoor area) and schedule the activity during physical education classes. If necessary, the simulation can also be set-up in an indoor area. Create a simulated road: For concrete surfaces use sidewalk chalk or orange cones to create street lines. For grassy surfaces lay out rope or yarn to simulate street lines. Create a visual screen using a parked vehicle or large item. Separate class into two teams and line up both teams on the same side of the practice street. 5

6 Teacher s Guide: Grades Use simulation flashcards from pages to facilitate simulation. WalkSafe Board Game Materials Page Board Game 32 Board Game Questions 33 How to Play: WalkSafe Board Game The goal of the game is to be the first player or team to get their game piece across the street safely. The first player will draw a card and read the question aloud for the second player to answer. If the second player answers correctly, he/she can move the game piece to the next position on the game board. Incorrect answers will move the player backward one square, and opponent will be given an opportunity to respond. The first player to get his/her game piece across the street safely wins. WalkSafe Simulation Activity: How to Play The objective of the game is to be the first team to get all of its members across the practice street safely. The instructor will ask the first person in each line a question, and whoever raises their hand first and answers correctly will get to cross the practice street. If an incorrect answer is given, that person will go to the end of the line and the other team will be given an opportunity to answer correctly. After answering the question correctly, students will need to demonstrate safe crossing behaviors while crossing the simulated road. If a student fails to cross safely, he/she will go to the end of the line and try again. The game is over when one team gets all of its members across the street safely. WalkSafe Simulation Activity Questions Question 1 What is the first thing you do when you get to a street? 2 What do you do next (after you stop, and before you cross)? 3 Does a green light or WALK signal always mean go? 4 What do you do when the WALK signal is lit up at a crosswalk? 5 What do you do when the DON T WALK signal is lit up? Answer Stop at the curb/edge of the street. Look left-right-left. 6 People who walk are known as Pedestrians. 7 If you re not sure if a driver can see you, should you cross? 8 What should you do while crossing the street to make sure you stay safe? 9 What is the definition of a visual screen? 10 Give an example of a visual screen. No! You have to stop and look leftright-left to make sure it s safe to cross. Look left-right-left, then cross when it is safe. Wait for a WALK signal. No! Make eye contact with the driver of the stopped vehicle before you cross. Keep looking in all directions to make sure no cars are coming. Anything that blocks your view when you are trying to look left-right-left before crossing the street. Car, bus, or bush. 6

7 Teacher s Guide: Grades WalkSafe Simulation Activity Questions (cont d.) Question 11 If you are trying to cross the street and there is a bus in the way, where should you cross? 12 What safety steps should you follow if there is a bus in the way when you re trying to cross the street? 14 Is it against the law to walk in the street if there is a sidewalk next to the street? 15 If you are walking with a group of people, who is in charge of stopping and looking left-right-left before crossing? 16 If the road does not have a sidewalk, where should pedestrians walk? 17 If you need help crossing a street or to understand pedestrian signals, who can you ask for help? 18 Why are open areas in parking lots dangerous? 19 In a parking lot, you should watch for cars heading for what? 20 In a parking lot, before you walk behind a parked car, what should you look for? Answer In front of the bus. Walk ahead until the driver can see you, then follow the visual screen safety steps before crossing. Yes. It is illegal and unsafe. Everyone in the group is in charge of their own safety, and should stop and look left-right-left. Walk as far to the left of the road as possible facing traffic so that drivers can see you. Crossing guards, AAA school safety patrols, teachers, or other adults that you know. Because they are just like streets. Open parking spaces. Backup lights, beeping, or any other indication that the car is backing up. 7

8 Teacher s Guide: Grades WalkSafe Simulation Activity Questions (cont d.) Day 2 Summary Summarize key concepts from Day 1. Review traffic signals using pages Question 21 If we look left-right-left, and a car is coming, what should we do? 23 At an intersection, is it enough to look left-right-left? 24 Why do we always look left first before crossing a street? Answer Wait until it passes, then look leftright-left until it is safe to cross. No, because you need to look for cars coming from all four directions. Because cars drive on the right side of the road, so cars coming from our left will be closer to us. Conduct simulation activity which allows students to: Demonstrate safe street crossing behaviors on a simulated road. Reinforce skills learned in Day 1 by answering basic pedestrian safety and health questions. Incorporate reproducible materials, teaching tools, and extended learning opportunities into lesson. *Optional Review lessons learned. 25 What does it mean to be safe? To be careful so that you don t get hurt. 26 Why might drivers not always see you, even if you see them? 27 Where is the best place to cross the street? 28 It s good to pay attention with your eyes, but what other sense can help you stay safe? 29 What kinds of sounds should you listen for when crossing the street? 30 When you re at an intersection, where should you stand to wait for a WALK signal? Drivers may not be paying attention, even if you are. At the corner or crosswalk. Hearing. Engines, horns, backing up, and beeping sounds. On the curb/ edge of the street. Key Objectives Lesson Review Knowing the difference between safe and unsafe crossing behaviors is an important part of being a safe pedestrian. Pedestrians need to be careful when crossing the street. Safe walkers look and listen before crossing the street. Always look left, right, and left when crossing the street. Walk on the sidewalk and cross at the curb, not the middle of the street. If your view is blocked, walk to the edge of the visual screen and then look. Always walk on the sidewalk not the street - If there is no sidewalk, walk on the left edge of the street. Obey traffic signals and always look before crossing. Obey school safety patrols when walking to, from, or around school. 8

42 WalkSafe Reading Comprehension Name Smart Pedestrians are Safe Pedestrians Always be careful when walking around your neighborhood. Each year thousands of children are hurt because they are not aware of how dangerous traffic can be. The Florida Department of Highway Safety and Motor Vehicles reported over 7,000 pedestrian injuries and 546 pedestrian fatalities in Many organizations have been working to find ways to help decrease these numbers. Schools have hired crossing guards to help protect children on their way to and from school each day. Communities have installed more crosswalks and sidewalks for pedestrians. Most important, organizations have found that teaching children how to be safe walkers is the best way to help prevent such injuries. There are many things pedestrians can do to be safe. The most important is to be aware of the traffic around them at all times. Smart pedestrians look and listen for oncoming cars, cars entering or exiting driveways, and cars backing in and out of parking spaces. They also walk on the sidewalk and not the street. When crossing a road, stop at the curb and look left-right-left until no cars are coming and it is safe to cross. If a car is coming, wait for the car to pass then look both directions again. You can never be too careful, for cars are fast and may appear out of anywhere. When crossing a busy intersection, pedestrians should obey the traffic signals and cross with caution. It is important to remember that it is still important to look in both directions when crossing using walk signals. Remember that drivers are not always paying attention and may not see you. You need to watch out for both cars going straight and cars turning your direction. It is your responsibility as a safe walker to always look out for your own safety. Following these safety tips will help keep you safe around your neighborhood. 1. According to the article, what is the best way to help prevent pedestrian injuries?
